Academy midfielder Idris El Mizouni has been named in the Tunisian Olympic squad for a training camp and friendly with Italy on Monday 15th October.

El Mizouni, 18, has made a strong start to the season with his performances in the Blues’ U18s winning him a spot in the U23s side. Olympic football is also played at U23 level.

The Tunisian youngsters meet up this Monday for the training camp and play a friendly against domestic side Club Africain on Wednesday before they travel for the Italian match in Vicenza.

French-born El Mizouni, who joined Town as a scholar in the summer of 2017, qualifies for Tunisia via his father.
